Thats the thing, its regional. And in the warmer state seasonal. Up north there is less of a camping season, and more people with campers. State parks in ny , pa, fill up as soon as they open. And the good stuff you have to set reminders for so you can grab a spot the year beforehand. Just the way it is now. Dosen't bother me as much as I have a few rallys we do every year for the state parks. And the other trips are usally camping resorts for the kido. The camping resorts tend to have more availability because there higher priced. But I had a few problems this year booking them and had to rearange dates at the last minute.
